She was born to the late Henry Joseph White and Yvonne Marie Richard White. From an early age, she helped raise her siblings Hank, Marilyn, Francis and Robert White.

Raised in Waltham, Mass., she was a graduate of St. Charles Catholic School. She attended a professional hair dressing school in Waltham, where she obtained her beautician’s license and worked in a salon. During World War II, she worked at Raytheon Co., assembling materials for the U.S Army.

After World War II, she met and wed Daniel A. Guiney, of Saugus, Mass. She had four children, Daniel A. Jr., Patricia Marilyn, Michael Kevin and John Patrick, who were raised mainly in Hudson, Maynard and Boylston, Mass.

While living in Maynard, Mass., as a single mother, she worked the night shift at Digital Equipment Corp. and met Phillip Mortimer of Clinton, Mass., who she married. They moved to Boylston. She worked at Sprague Electric in Worcester, Mass., until her retirement in 1988.

She loved the ocean, where she and her husband enjoyed many summers at their vacation house in Scarborough Beach, R.I. After her husband died in 1993, she moved from Westford, then Auburn, Mass., and later to Madison, Ala., to remain close to her son, Jay, and his family until she required assisted living and nursing care. In 2011, she came to Amelia Island, Fla., to be near and cared for by her daughter, Patty.
